Restore Options | |
Restore only the dump file(s) (Windows DS-Client) | This option will only restore the dump file to the specified location. The dump will not be loaded to the database. (This option is not available if DS-Client Buffer or DS-Client Pipe is specified in the Dump To box.) |
Restore as Pure Files (Linux DS-Client) | This option is available if “Alternate Location” is selected. It will restore only the data. This option will only restore the dump file to the specified location. The dump will not be loaded to the database. |
Restore Path | When restoring to an alternate location, you can specify the path for the log and data files separately. Opens the "Select Restore Path". |
Preserve original database file location | This option only applies to restores to the original location. • Off (default) - The restored files will be placed on the target instance's default path(s). • On - The restore files must be placed in their original path(s). If the original path(s) do not exist, the restore will fail. |
Ask for Network Credentials | Prompts you to type a valid user name and password for the selected computer. • This option is available for BLM and Disc/Tape restores, since the original backup set might no longer be on the DS-Client. If you do not select this option, DS-Client uses its own (service) credentials to access the network location. |
Ask for Database Credentials (Databases only) | Prompts you to type a valid user name and password for the database server. • This option is available for BLM and Disc/Tape restores, since the original backup set might no longer be on the DS-Client. • For Microsoft SQL: If you do not select this option, DS-Client uses its own (service) credentials to access the database server. • For MySQL and PostgreSQL: You must select this option and provide credentials to access the database server. |
Restore to a local database file (Salesforce.com - Table Restore) | To restore the dump file as an FDB file to a location that you specify on the DS-Client computer, select this option. Do one of the following to specify the location: • Type the path into the box. Note: UNC paths are not supported with this option. |
Restore to multiple data files (CSV) (Salesforce.com - Table Restore) | To restore the database in CSV format to a location that you specify, select this option. Click >>, and then in the "Select Directory" dialog box, browse to and select the destination location. Note: Salesforce.com system tables are not restorable to the Salesforce.com online database. This option allows you to restore backed up Salesforce.com system tables. Each table will be a standalone CSV file in the destination folder. |
Please select the path to put the database (Salesforce.com - Item-Level Restore) | In the first step of a Granular (Item-Level) Restore, you must select the location where you restore the Salesforce.com database file. For performance, it is preferable that this is a location on the DS-Client. • Click [>>] to open the “"Select Directory"” dialog box and specify the destination. |
Notes | |
1 | If restoring to an alternate location, the database and table must exist on the database server where you are restoring. |
2 | Table restores will not restore indexes. |
